Updates a GitHub user's README.md with the recent GitHub activity. The only difference with this fork is Node.js 16.x compartibility and default user.name and user.email for the generated commit.

Remember that using this fork will commit your updated README as the Recap TIme Bot. That account is managed by Recap Time Squad and will count it as an contribution to your README repo. If you want, add that account to your collaborators to allow us debug issues.

NOTE: We recommend to have an your-username/your-username repo on your personal GitHub account and not on your org (they're unsupported by design).

• Add the comment <!--START_SECTION:activity--> (entry point) within README.md. You can find an example here.

• It's the time to create a workflow file called .github/workflows/update-readme.yml. The above job runs every half an hour, you can change it as you wish based on the cron syntax. You can find an example here.

name: GitHub activity feed to README

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '* */2 * * *' # 30 minus to probably too much for API ratelimits

jobs:
  generate-feed:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Generate feed

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2

      # Pin the version to the latest stable version.
      # If you want to live on edge, use 'master' branch.
      - uses: RecapTime/github-activity-readme@master
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

The above job runs every two hours, you can change it as you wish based on the cron syntax.

Please note that only those public events that belong to the following list show up:

• IssueEvent
• IssueCommentEvent
• PullRequestEvent

You can find an example here.

Use the following input params to customize it for your use case:-

name: Update README

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '*/30 * * * *'
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Update this repo's README with recent activity

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: jamesgeorge007/github-activity-readme@master
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        with:
          COMMIT_MSG: 'Specify a custom commit message'
          MAX_LINES: 10
